As a woman, I always check out other women because 1) we're fun to look at, 2) it's good to scope out the competition, and 3) to keep track of fashion/trends.

I never notice anything on men other than if they are well groomed and if they have handsome/pleasant faces. Men's bodies are way down on the list of things I care about. I do not understand looking at a man's crotch - they might be growers, not showers. I care about nice teeth way more than if someone is in shape.

This "collection of parts" nonsense is really stupid. We are ALL a collection of parts. How can you not see the parts of a person when you look at them? You have to see all the parts to see the whole, right?????????????

I've never noticed if my wife stares at boobs, because if there are boobs available for viewing, well, I'm pretty much looking at the boobs and not my wife. I would, however, like to party with these boob-staring women if they are for real. In fact, 2 women staring at each other's boobs would pretty much have me making them sandwiches.

Why was I raised a mammal? It is both a curse and a blessing. When will I have time for the finer things in life, like writing poetry, composing songs, smelling the flowers? Who am I kidding all my poems are about boobs anyway.

Absolutely. When I check out other women it's usually not for any sort of sexual context, it's for science. Maybe I like her outfit and wonder what it would look like on me (I'm quite happy wrap shirts are going out of style). Maybe she's complaining about her breasts getting in the way or being hard to dress, and I'm curious (You're what, a C cup? That does seem troublesome). Or maybe maybe I'm just curious. Women talk about breasts, bras, periods, discharge, and pretty much everything else much more than men do, men realize, or men would ever believe. Sorry if that ruins the illusion, it's just the way we are.

I'll admit to checking out men, but there's not a whole lot you can tell. Overall body shape and size, I guess, but rarely specific body parts. Especially those body parts men are most concerned with.

And wtf, is there a boob bandwidth/month that's already exploded?

It's a phenomenon best experienced when you're sitting opposite each other at a table, so you can't look without being obvious, but you can see her reaction. It's hard for her to get mad at you for staring when you've already caught her.
